Versioning and publishing are handled automatically by repository CI when changes are merged into main.
Contributors should use feature branches and open pull requests; releases are generated from the protected main branch workflow.
The CI publish step requires a granular npm access token with bypass 2FA enabled, or you can switch the workflow to trusted publishing. Regular user tokens may trigger an OTP prompt and fail the release job.
